วีดีโอ

Thank you! Yes 👍 would you want to know sth in particular? It’s working well in light wind conditions, with a 3m wing and pump board, 5/7 knots for me are fine (62kg). Challenging is the Beachstart with the wing (wind has to come from the opposite side where you have wing so that it flies behind you) and not falling otherwise you have to swim back to the shore. I will make a video as soon as I can ;)

😅 this is a coiled leash. I make a loop with it attaching it to the wing front handle, so yes it looks short but you can remove it easily from your chest 👍

😅😅 t’as vu juste !

Kluber Board 80cm

Here we go ❤️

👍 Pumpfoil is so much fun!!! I’m expecting a new record from you on Tuesday, when Austria is playing 😉

@@Ludo_freefoiler ah you remember maybe but i think i wont pump on tuesday but thanks

😅😅 have fun!! 👍💪

Top la platine sur cette planche tu l’as placé comment ?

@@samirtribbiani8715 il n’y a qu’une position sur ce type de planche. Sur une planche de surffoil, je la place un peu moins de la moitié sur lavant.

@@Ludo_freefoiler yes merci ben j’ai la même planche.. et y’a quand même un peu de jeu pour coulisser

@@samirtribbiani8715 👍 je la place en butée au fond

Thank you ☺️

You’re welcome! I hope the tutorial will help you!! 😉💪

“On knees” with this setup (high aspect ratio Frontwing, lot of glide) is the easiest way because you don’t need to jump that high and less scary than the classic version on feet. I will try with a low aspect ratio Frontwing and check if this remains the easiest one ;)

Give a try! Use a stable chair and protect yourself (helmet, neoprene suit and shoes). Which frontwing will you use? I haven’t try this with a low aspect ratio yet, should be working the same, I will try it next week. Dock is easier but I have seen people learning with success differently when no dock available!

@@Ludo_freefoiler thanks! I have two low aspect foils available, a large one with 1900cm2 and one with 1500cm2, both Neil Pryde Glide HP with 75cm carbon mast. I think the larger one will be more suitable, I have 73kg weight.

@@matija3791 👍 yes use the bigger one 💪

@@Ludo_freefoiler looking forward to the first trials :).

Thanks :) that’s a good question! The classic “on feet” with and without wing is possible with a low aspect ratio Frontwing. Next week I will try “on knees” and “on belly” with a low aspect ratio and let you know ;)

@@Ludo_freefoiler thank you!!! Looking forward for your next videos!!!

:) the start is more challenging. When you use the wing you can relax/recover. Then you can pump with the wing behind you to reach the position you want. If you fall you have to swim, so be careful in the manoeuvres. With practice, as long as there is a bit of wind and you don’t lose control you can pump for a very long time since you can recover with the wing

:)

😅 yes that it! there is no way to start in the water like that. At the beginning it’s safer to remain close to the shore. With the experience the mistakes don’t happen that often 👍

That’s awesome!! 🙌🏼 thanks for sharing this great day, congratulations on your new records! 🥳🥳🥳 weiter so 😉

@@Ludo_freefoilerDanke

When I started pump foiling two years ago it was with the x-over xxl. I learnt very fast and the price is quite low. According to my experience, to learn in good conditions the new X-over xxl is a good choice! 65cm Alu mast is a good length to get started (the shorter the easier) for Beachstart and Dockstart with Docks almost at the water level. If the dock where you will learn is high, you might need to adjust the length.

Hi, I haven’t had the opportunity to test the titan fuselage yet, hopefully soon. I know this recommendation, this is mainly not to damage the fuselage since the loads with big high aspect ratio wings are very high. It depends on your weight as well. I’m only 62kg…

Hi! Thanks :) You can try to reduce your stance by moving your front foot closer to your back foot so that you can use more your front foot during the squats. Using your both legs almost equally is the key. Do the squats as little as possible, don’t go too deep on your legs. The toes are pointing slightly towards the outside, so back foot toes not in the riding direction. At each squat use as little energy as possible. Currently I’m using a bigger stab, Veloce H 47cm and no shimming. Tell me if it helps ;)

Thanks! You’re right, I will put my weight in the description, 62kg 👍

Thanks ☺️

Thanks :)

@@Ludo_freefoiler Is it difficult to start like that? At that time I have already start from a paddle, but a friend old it. So it works pretty well. But if i'm alone, I'm interest to build your board holder. do you think about some improvment of your conception? thanks a lot for your reply. enjoy 🤙

@@clementbn820 I also started on a SUP board with someone holding it behind. But with the board holder this is quite easy. It worked for me on the second attempt and is working now all the time. That’s why I haven’t change the first concept, I’m still using it :) so go for it 💪 you will love it. If you have some difficulties maybe try a bigger plate

Yea i do that too and noticed that most people do too

Merci pour tes messages :) oui d’avoir les pointes vers l’extérieur c’est mieux pour économiser de l’énergie en faisant les squats 👍

Hi, merci :) Je pense que les deux Frontwings sont assez comparables. La Sirus xl fait 136cm. La léviathan est une bonne aile. Tu tiendras de plus en plus longtemps avec la pratique. 2min c’est déjà une bonne base :)

Yes I will do it ;)

I haven’t took any lessons but watched a lot of videos at the beginning. I give you some tips, I hope this will help you. Don’t give up! 1. Start with a beginner dick low aspect ratio frontwing (2000cm2, 100cm). 2. Dockstart as first start. 3. By lightwind in Wingfoil use your pump foil setup (mast, frontwing and stab). Train to pump with your wing behind you as long as you can What setup are you using?

@@Ludo_freefoiler Thanks! I had Gong Rise XXL on custom board with 65 and 80cm mast, then sroka classic 2000 on Gong Catch 4'0 board with 80 and 70cm mast, and now Lol 1900 on Catch 4'0 with 75cm mast. I will try to pump it while winging. I thought it was not possible with the big 70L board (inflatable)

@@fredodofre it is possible to pump a bit with a big board. It will not last long and not feel as good as with a small pump board, but to train while wingfoiling this is worth it

Thank you

What’s the size of your Axis foil? A bit less than 12km/h I would said, I will check how much I can reduce my speed

Thank you for your message! Until now I was not really looking at the heat rate but this is interesting to understand how long one can pump. I’m going to check the parameters of my watch because as you said always in the zone 5 to be and feeling ok doesn’t seem realistic. I will keep investigating the heart rate and keep you posted. The first time I did 15min a couple of weeks ago, I was done at the end. Now it feels pretty easy. This is not because my heart can sustain a higher bpm but because I am more efficient in my pumps and controlling the heart rate: relax/save energy. I will look if becoming more and more efficient I can keep the heart rate in the zone 3 for a longer time. I am 34 for 62kg.

Unfortunately I don’t see more information about the splits I posted (mark 05:12 in my video)… time/speed and heart rate but no power output

Thanks! 62kg

@@Ludo_freefoiler thanks for the answer. Which Foil size would you recommend for 75kg?

@@matija3791 what’s your experience with pump foiling? If you have some the Sirus xl will be fine. If you want to begin I would recommend a beginner frontwing low aspect ratio. It will be much more easier at the beginning

@@Ludo_freefoiler I did not pump foil yet, but I am thinking in starting. At the moment I am wingfoiling (27 sessions until now) and doing some pumping together with Wing of course. I have a low aspect 1900mm2 Neil Pryde Glide HP front wing. Do you think that I may use this for beginner pump foiling still?

@@matija3791 yes, it might work, give it a try! If it doesn’t work, these are still bigger easier Frontwings on the market 👍

ما افتهمت ؟ ؟ ! !

Thank you for your message! Very good questions!! I’m going to make a video about heart rate and tips on how to control it. I have already a heart rate chart at the end of this video: th-cam.com/video/zyQCUvvOECI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=aV8fWd8Z3bz3uk-E For 20min ride, average heart rate 176bpm, max 186bpm. I jump as well very quickly high, but I am making sure all the time not to enter my “red/limit” zone where no recovery while pumping is possible. At one point it is not possible anymore and I have to stop, record so far by 30min. To control it, I try to pump using as little energy as possible and relax as long as I can. I have some tricks that I will share in the next video. The speed is about 13km/h. I try to have the lowest comfortable speed as possible. If the speed is too low too close to stall speed, to stay in control I might want to regain speed pushing hard and quickly on your back leg, going to accelerate your heart rate.

What setup to you have?

@@Ludo_freefoiler I'm 63, weigh 65 kg . I have axis 1150 front wing , skinny 360/45 stab, short fuselage, and 75 cm mast.

@@oneamateur change the skinny for 460 V2 (slower, but more stable with more glide) and don't give up. Later you can change back to skinny. It's easier with the setup he has, a huge HA front wing does miracles 🙂

@@oneamateuryou are 63 years old? Do you know your maximum heart rate and your vo2 max?

@@DmitryAvramenko my maximum heart rate is 174. I've been running marathon the last 10 years. I've been windsurfing, kitesurfing, and wingsurfing. I just want to try if I can do this before my body gives out on me.

😅 well, it looks easier in video than in reality! In the videos we don’t feel that the back leg is burning or that the heart rate is very high. Speaking while pumping was quite stressful 😅
